Chapter 11. Additional Samba Information

This chapter wraps up our coverage of the
smb.conf configuration file with some
miscellaneous options that can perform a variety of tasks. We talk
briefly about options for time synchronization, internationalization,
messages, and common Windows bugs. For the most part, you will use
these options only in isolated circumstances.

The nice thing about this is that NTP is the standard method for
synchronizing Unix hosts on a network, so you can synchronize all
your Unix systems (including the Samba server) and Windows systems
with the following method:

Run NTP on the Unix systems in your network. For more information on
using NTP, refer to http://www.ntp.org.

Use one of the Unix systems (such as the Samba host system) as an NTP
server to serve Windows 2000/XP clients.

Note that you must include a clientcodepage option to specify the
character set from which you are converting. The valid character sets
(and their matching code pages) that Samba accepts are listed in
Table 11-5.
